What commandments is Jesus talking about?

[ace of hearts]

How about this one:

Acts 24:14
"And yet I confess this, that in the same doctrine of which they speak, I serve The God of my fathers, as I believe all things which are written in The Written Law and in The Prophets.”

So do I. I also believe all things written in the NT. The NT creates a problem for you and sets me free.

Heb 12:18 For ye are not come unto the mount that might be touched, and that burned with fire, nor unto blackness, and darkness, and tempest,

.

Had to read that twice to understand. Good verse.

No one could ever keep the entire law, since some laws were only for priests, other laws only for women, etc

I've heard this out (dodge) many times.

 

[ace of hearts]

Listen, is it OK to murder, steal, commit adultery, etc? Do you do these things? Do you promote them? If not, then you follow the law. Simple...

That's simply not true. LK 6:31 Also I look around me and observe many people who will tell you what to do with stinky religion. Their reference for behavior isn't the Scripture.

 

[ace of hearts]

Those are His own words, not opinion. It is up to you if you want to believe them or not

That's opinion.

 

[Yeshua HaDerekh]

I've heard this out (dodge) many times.

Truth is never a "dodge"

It was called The Way originally, a Jewish sect. Christianity is from a Greek term (Christianoi) used for followers of Christos (or those belonging to Christos).

So what. It still doesn't make Christianity Judaism. Even though called a sect of Judaism it was recognized as totally different and foreign to Judaism.

 

[ace of hearts]

LOL, tell that to all the Apostles!

Why? That's what the Apostles conveyed to me.

 

[Yeshua HaDerekh]

So what. It still doesn't make Christianity Judaism. Even though called a sect of Judaism it was recognized as totally different and foreign to Judaism.

I guess you will need to read Jeremiah again LOL!

 

[Yeshua HaDerekh]

Why? That's what the Apostles conveyed to me.

Then you are reading a different Bible

 

[Yeshua HaDerekh]

Why? That's what the Apostles conveyed to me.

Paul too LOL?? Philippians 3:5

 

[Yeshua HaDerekh]

That's simply not true. LK 6:31 Also I look around me and observe many people who will tell you what to do with your stinky religion. Their reference for behavior isn't the Scripture.

Yes, it simply IS true. "my stinky religion"? nice...

Luke 6:31 …. Leviticus 19:18

“What is hateful to you do not do to your neighbor. This is the whole Torah [Law]; all the rest is commentary.”
Hillel, Talmud Shabbat 31a

What do you mean by “these”? If your referring to the actual commandments given by God then yes those are the law. If your referring to the laws that were written by the Pharisees there were many additions they added to God’s actual commandments. Like for example where does God command us to worship on the sabbath?

No idea why you would think he was talking about Pharisee law.

To your question - no where. Which really makes the argument about worship promoted by sabbatarians void.

 

[ace of hearts]

The commandment itself is God’s will but our keeping it is our’s. Ultimately we choose whether or not to adhere to the guidance of the Holy Spirit.

True! The law isn't the Holy Spirit nor does the Holy Spirit direct us to the law.

 

[ace of hearts]

The laws were intended to whom they were intended for. A man could not keep laws only intended for woman...

This is just dodging the law.

 

[Yeshua HaDerekh]

This is just dodging the law.

Well since men can't menstruate monthly, I wouldn't call it a dodge LOL!

I just wanted to be clear on my position. If I had said we are obligated to keep the law he might’ve thought I was referring to the Jewish law. I prefer to refer to the commandments God gave us as His commandments in order to distinguish them apart from the Jewish law. And yes I agree that we are not obligated to keep the sabbath but personally I believe we should set aside at least one day a week to honor God.

 

[Yeshua HaDerekh]

So what. It still doesn't make Christianity Judaism. Even though called a sect of Judaism it was recognized as totally different and foreign to Judaism.

So you agree with the fact that it was a sect WITHIN Judaism but in the same breath you claim it was foreign to it? LOL

 

[ace of hearts]

Who was he writing to? Yes, the gentiles did not know and it has NOW been revealed to them...

Please tell us why the gentiles would be interested in becoming Israel. It was the Jew who wanted to exclude gentiles unless they submitted to the law.

 

[BNR32FAN]

True! The law isn't the Holy Spirit nor does the Holy Spirit direct us to the law.

The Holy Spirit directs us to obey God’s commandments which is part of the law.
